Most of the time we're going to have a check engine light, that's one of the symptoms. Sometimes we can have some surging and sometimes we can have a scenario where we start the engine and then it's stalls, we start it and then it stalls. It won't stay running.
What are the symptoms of a bad mass air flow sensor?
Welcome to Mercie J, where compassion and craftsmanship come together, I'm Rick Smith.
Now first of all, let me say that a mass airflow sensor is a critical input to the computer. So if you have a problem with it, you do want to fix it. It can be used for a lot of things and one of the things a lot of people don't know about is that the computer can sometimes adjust the pressures in the transmission because of what it's seeing on the mass air flow sensor. If you don't have enough pressures, you can actually destroy a transmission.

So those are some typical symptoms of a bad mass airflow sensor. I hope this has been informational to you and until next time safe travels to you and blessings
